“…The percentage distribution of the identified 18 muscle function assessment methods among all the included studies ( n = 139) and studies focusing on CCLD [ n = 16 ( 1 , 6 , 14 , 34 , 35 , 39 , 40 , 45 – 53 )] are shown in Figure 3 . Ten out of the 18 muscle function assessment methods were applied in studies on CCLD.…”

“…Video analysis without markers, accelerometry/pedometry, and ultrasound were some of the methods that were not applied among the CCLD studies. Scoring systems were applied in five of the CCLD studies and covered simple lameness scores but with different scales ( 6 , 34 , 35 , 39 , 40 ).…”

“…Further, there were no specific scoring systems for dogs with CCLD. As such, different scales of lameness grading were used ( 6 , 34 , 35 , 39 , 40 ), making it difficult to compare results between studies. Seven percent of the identified methods assessed muscle function by sEMG and AMG.…”

Skeletal muscle function can be affected by multiple disorders in dogs of which cranial cruciate ligament rupture or disease (CCLD) is one of the most common. Despite the significance of this condition only sparse research exists regarding assessment of muscle function in dogs. This scoping review aimed to identify the non-invasive methods for canine muscle function assessments that have been reported in the literature in the past 10 years. A systematic literature search was conducted 1st March 2022 across six databases. After screening, 139 studies were considered eligible for inclusion. Among the included studies, 18 different muscle function assessment categories were identified, and the most frequently reported disease state was CCLD. We included an attempt to elucidate the clinical applicability of the 18 reported methods, as experts were asked to subjectively assess the methods for their clinical relevance as well as their practical applicability in dogs with CCLD.

“…Electrotherapy is also used in veterinary medicine in order to treat acute and chronic pain in patients with orthopaedic and neurologic signs. Alternating currents of low frequency are usually used in veterinary medicine, like NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) and TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) (Hussain et al, 2019;Dumitrescu and Cristina, 2015;Samoy et al, 2016).…”

The measurement of pain levels is made differently depending if acute or chronic pain is diagnosed, objective (e.g. cortisol, prolactin, serotonin, catecholamines, or the cardiac frequency and arterial pressure evaluation) or subjective methods being imagined. All subjective methods are including questionnaires and specific additional methods. The aim was the verifying the effectiveness of drug and physiotherapy combinations by using an owner based questionnaire for the chronic patients and a veterinary professional based questionnaire for the acute pain patient group. In this study a total of 20 dogs with observable pain were selected and two groups (n = 10 / group), constituted: G1 - chronic pain, and G2 - acute pain. The treatment of dogs with acute signs of pain was made oral or injectable with NSAIDs administration and for dogs with signs of chronic pain, physiotherapy treatment and drug therapy was administered. The owners of the dogs with chronic pain received the HCPI questionnaire in order to evaluate their dog’s pain level subjectively. For the dogs with acute pain the veterinarian filled out the short form of Glasgow Composite Measure Pain Scale (CMPS-SF). After initiating a Paired t-test in Excel 2010 with the scores obtained with HCPI and CMPS-SF, there was observed a significant reduction of pain after associated drug administration and physiotherapy and no significant evidence of acute pain after drug therapy. The used physiotherapy and drug combinations delivered a significant reduction of chronic pain, both clinically and visually mirrored in score reduction after treatments. The HCPI questionnaire could be considered a valuable tool for evaluating chronic pain in patients in the clinic environment. The CMPS-SF has also proven to be a very useful questionnaire in diagnose of acute pain and evaluation of the effectiveness of drug therapy used.
